(My apologies that the last few weather posts were not online, but only circulated in the Tuesday / Friday Calls, but it looks like I’m able to post again online too.)
We’re sitting under a ridge of high pressure, so will be waiting on some snow for a while. Both weekend days are warm, with Saturday being sunnier and windier, and Sunday being partly cloudy and even warmer (around 40 degrees).
Next chance of snow looks to be this upcoming Wednesday. Here are the model forecasts for that snow:
4” – Canadian Model
1” – European Model
0” – American Model
Then, perhaps more snow next Friday and/or Sunday?
Retrospective Discussion:
The midweek snow resulted in 1”, a result between the WRF models and the other models.
Cheers.

Geeky Notes:
References to the American Model are to the American (GFS) Model grid including Brainerd Lake with an average elevation of 9,439’. References to the Canadian Model are the Canadian (GDPS) Model grid including Brainerd Lake with an average elevation of 10,253’. References to the European Model are the European (ECMWF IFS) Model grid including Brainerd Lake. References to the WRF Model are the CAIC WRF Hi-Res Model point forecast for Eldora Ski Area with an elevation of 9,189’. References to the Icon and UKMet Models are to the European (ECMWF) Model on a point with my cursor at my best estimate of Eldora Ski Area. For big picture overviews, I tend to rely on the American Model, not because I think it is the most accurate, but because (i) it is free and (ii) I like its interface.
